This serif shows broad proportions with a calm, low-contrast stroke and an overall steady, upright stance. Serifs read as flared and slightly wedge-like, giving an incised, inscriptional feel rather than a blunt slab. Curves are generous and open (notably in round letters), while joins and terminals stay crisp, producing a clean rhythm even at larger sizes. The lowercase features a single-storey “a” and “g,” with short, tidy ascenders and rounded bowls that keep the texture smooth and airy.
It performs well in headlines and display settings where its width and flared serifs can read as intentional character. The steady, open forms also suit editorial typography, book and magazine covers, and brand wordmarks that want a traditional but distinctive serif voice.
The tone is formal and literary, with a classical, inscription-inspired refinement that feels composed rather than decorative. Its wide stance and flared details convey a dignified, slightly monumental presence suited to confident, measured typography.
The design appears intended to modernize an inscriptional serif idiom—pairing flared, chiseled-like serifs with broad, legible shapes for clear display impact. It aims for a classic, authoritative impression while maintaining a smooth, contemporary regularity in rhythm and spacing.
Figures are rounded and spacious with clear silhouettes, and the overall spacing and counters create a light, open page color. The italic is not shown; the samples suggest a consistent roman voice across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
